Next week, the entire market's nerves will be affected by 'Federal Reserve time'!
Next week's macro schedule can be described as a field of landmines:
Monday: Bowman appears, possibly signaling 'tightening or easing'
Tuesday & Wednesday: Powell testifies in succession, where every word can trigger market fluctuations
Thursday: Initial jobless claims, a key signal for measuring employment strength
Friday: Major core PCE year-on-year + final consumer confidence index, directly anchoring inflation and consumption expectations
Especially the PCE, which is the inflation indicator most closely watched by the Federal Reserve, is expected to rise to 2.6%. If it exceeds expectations, the anticipation for interest rate cuts may be delayed again, which could hit venture capital, the stock market, and the cryptocurrency market hard.
This is not just an ordinary week; it is a critical **'expectation anchoring week'.
Whether the market moves left or right is likely to be answered in these speeches and data.
Do you think Powell will be more hawkish or dovish? Will the monetary faucet be tightened or loosened?
